My back here, it's got coolant all over the ground. I was just wondering if you're going to just double up and keep going or else, um, because we're almost here.

Finish the delivery. Finish the delivery. We'll go deliver this thing, and we'll come back here with at least one strap, pick this up, and I'll drag you home tonight. Yeah, that's how we work in pairs. We help each other out, you know, wherever we need an extra hand here. But today, it looks like I'm going to be needing the hand to get back home.

I don't think we're going to have the time today to stop and erect everything, but that's all right. It adds an extra day to what we want to be doing, but we're the kind of people that can put out that extra day. [Music]

The day turned out better than I thought, actually, and this got here in one piece. I'll be it a little shaky, but we'll reinforce it again. Just because we're snow machine down doesn't mean we can't finish up with what we started.

We finished the job, now we go back and go start a new unexpected job, a little bit of mechanicing. We'll get this home, and we'll call it a day. It's been a long day already. This morning was long enough, this afternoon was long enough, and we still got a 40m ride home.

She Shoots, She Scores: Title IX Turns 50 | Podcast | Overheard at National Geographic

Um, I’m Amy Briggs. It is Wednesday, April 13th, I think, and I am in Princeton, New Jersey, and I’m walking down Prospect Avenue, which is the street where all the eating clubs are. So, eating clubs on a sunny spring day, I took a walk down memory lane. …
